Answer:

The mass ratio of oxygen rounded to the nearest whole no. 3 : 2

Explanation:

According to Law of Multiple proportion when two elements combine to make two or more different compounds, the mass ratio of the two element in the first compound, when divided by the mass ratio of the second compound , form a simple whole number ratio.

Compound A contains 1.34 g of sulfur for every 0.86 g of oxygen

        \frac{1.34}{0.86}= 1.5

Compound B contains 11.63 g of sulfur for every 10.49 g of oxygen

      \frac{11.643}{10.49}= 1.0

Ratio of oxygen in each compound

   always put the larger number over the smaller number.

\frac{CompoundA}{Compound B}=\frac{1.5}{1.0}=\frac{3}{2}

Describe how the particles of two substances interact when mixed. Be sure to discuss the activation energy and how the particles
Charra [1.4K]
A reaction mechanism must ultimately be understood as a "blow-by-blow" description of the molecular-level events whose sequence leads from reactants to products. These elementary steps (also called elementary reactions) are almost always very simple ones involving one, two, or [rarely] three chemical species which are classified

It is common knowledge that chemical reactions occur more rapidly at higher temperatures. Everyone knows that milk turns sour much more rapidly if stored at room temperature rather than in a refrigerator, butter goes rancid more quickly in the summer than in the winter, and eggs hard-boil more quickly at sea level than in the mountains. For the same reason, cold-blooded animals such as reptiles and insects tend to be noticeably more lethargic on cold days.

Thermal energy relates direction to motion at the molecular level. As the temperature rises, molecules move faster and collide more vigorously, greatly increasing the likelihood of bond cleavages and rearrangements as described above.

Which of the following represents the least number of molecues?
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Answer: a) 20g of H2O (18.02 g/mol) molecules=6.68x10^23

Explanation:

In order to find the amount of molecules of each of the options, we need to follow the following equation.

molecules=\frac{mass(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{atomic weight(g/mol)}

So, let´s get the number of molecules for each of the options.

a) molecules=\frac{20(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{18.02(g/mol)}=6.68x10^{23}molecules

b) molecules=\frac{77(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{16.06(g/mol)}=2.89x10^{24}molecules

c) molecules=\frac{68(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{42.09(g/mol)}=9.73x10^{23}molecules

d) molecules=\frac{100(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{44.02(g/mol)}=1.37x10^{24}molecules

d) molecules=\frac{84(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{20.01(g/mol)}=2.53x10^{24}molecules

the smalest number is in option a)

Best of luck.

What can be said about the spontaneity of this reaction? cdiamond→cgraphite
anastassius [24]
The gibbs free energy of the reaction of diamond to graphite is equal to -2.90 kJ/mol. The free energy is negative which means that the reaction is spontaneous. Therefore, the forward reaction is favored. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.
